Vitamin C activates the immune system. It stimulates your immune system and helps your body fight infection. It helps protect you against various viral and bacterial infections including colds and flu. While Vitamin C is helpful during an infection, it is not a good idea to wait until infection hits. The best medicine is Prevention! To improve your immune system before you become exposed, get treated early.

Getting just one IV Vitamin C treatment per week can greatly boost your immune system.

Quantity, frequency and duration are the prevention and if infected, the key to a swift recovery. If you show signs of the illness, get into our office that day to get an IVC Infusion. Studies show that an infusion of Vitamin C can boost your immune cells within a few hours. If your symptoms are severe a second infusion should be administered the next day. We will try our best to work in anyone who is sick and in need of a Vitamin C treatment that day.

The 2009 H1N1 Flu {aka: Swine Flu} is a new influenza virus that is spreading worldwide among people. Because this virus is very different from current seasonal influenza viruses, many people will not have protective immunity against it and the seasonal flu vaccine will not protect against it either. An additional vaccination for H1N1 Flu won’t be available until Mid-October, but there won’t be enough vaccinations to cover everyone. The current plan is to administer the limited supply of vaccinations from Mid-October to Mid-December.

“After studying natural medicine for over 35 years, the longer I practice and the more I learn and know, it is ever more difficult to understand how powerful remedies 100% natural and devastatingly effective continue to be deliberately overlooked, ignored and denied …all at the peril of public health. Natural agents that dwarf in comparison anything the pharmaceutical industry has to offer with far, far greater effect, safety and protection. It truly defies human understanding.”
-Dr. Hale-

“Over 3 million links for Vitamin C and flu. What more evidence do we need to realize there is a conspiracy to keep the power of massive doses of ascorbate secret from the public. The drug pushing industry cannot keep this secret long because of the internet. They won’t even order serum levels of vitamin C in sick patients because they would reveal the acute induced scurvy (i.e. the serum levels would be or almost be zero.) One trick that is anticipated is to use inadequate doses and then claim that high doses like 4 to 10 grams a day (which are ridiculously low doses for these diseases) did not help. … I have not seen a flu yet that was resistant to massive doses of ascorbic acid (vitamin C).”
-Robert Cathcart, M.D.-

“At the Longevity Centre of Houston last year all of our patients who received immune boosting vitamin C IV Infusions noticed an improved sense of well-being and were more resistant to infections.”
-Marina M. Pearsall, M.D., Ph.D.-
